Abstract

The study has been conducted in the FATA area of Khyber, now a newly combined district in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region. Before 2018, when Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and FATA were combined, it was a department of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. It extends all the way from Peshawar to the Tirah valley. In Pakistan's evolving society, the generation gap between parents and children could be a significant and contentious negative. It has to do with people's or elders' divergent perspectives, deeds, convictions, and ideals as well as politics, close proximity, modern technologies, cultural shifts, and communication. It also makes references to disagreements, paradoxes, and conflicts in a number of other contexts. The current study set out to investigate the causes and consequences of the generational rift in the Pashtun community. 400 randomly chosen samples from the present population were chosen using a quantitative analytic method, and data were collected using a well-designed form. Cronbach's Alpha for the data is.932. SPSS has been utilized to examine the data for victimization. The outcomes were listed along with a distribution table and kind. The results show relationships between a number of variables, including technological advancement, way of life, behavior, social norms, communication gaps, state, poverty, socioeconomic status, and religiosity, that were statistically significant (0.05). Although, it frequently can be reduced by compassion, love, understanding, giving, and other deeds of kindness, the generation difference is a challenge that both adults and children must deal with.
